Earthwise 50120 Electric Lawn Mower Review

Hello Readers,

If you’re looking for the most cost effective electric lawn mower possible I think I may have found it. The Earthwise Electric Lawn Mower 50120 is a corded lawn mower that will pretty much cut anything you need to so long as you have a long enough extension cord. I personally don’t reccmond buying an electric lawn mower if you have anything larger than a medium sized yard, but it’s great for people who have small front yards or backyards that feel more like patches of grass than actual yards.

The Earthwise 50120 is equipped with a 20” blade. That’s not such a huge deal for the target demographic, people with smaller lawns. Still, it’s nice to know your mowing isn’t going to take forever and a day to get through. One feature I particularly like is the plug-in socket.

Other than that, the Earthwise Electric Lawn Mower has all the standard features you would expect from any lawn mower. You can adjust height from 1.75” – 3.75, not as much variety as I would prefer to see, but if you’re just using this to cut a small patch of lawn for 10 or 15 minutes that’s probably not going to make much of a difference to you.

What really makes me excited about the Earthwise Electric Lawn Mower is that it is cheap. Yes, it is very cheap. Coming in at about $160 bucks this is an excellent, cost effective way of dealing with your lawn. The battery powered lawn mowers generally start at $350, and even though powering this electric lawn mower with batteries would be convenient, keeping the price below $200 justifies the inconvenience of using a power cord.

One other thing I want to be sure to mention about the Earthwise 50120 Electric Lawn Mower is that it looks cool. A lot of these electric lawn mowers have that "I drive a Prius" look. Thank god this Earthwise Electric Lawn Mower does not!
